After Miracle Win, Who's Next For Heights Tigers In Playoffs?

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, OH — The Heights Tigers won a wild, back-and-forth game with Elyria on Friday night.

There's no reward for valor in the playoffs, just another, tougher opponent. On Friday, the Tigers will leave their stadium and head to undefeated Medina's home turf.
